I just took it out of the box, shook it and finger styled it and found that combing the top to the left suits me fine; does come with bangs. Elsa by Joan Collins is, indeed, a quality wig and I finally found one that is natural-looking, and well stitched and constructed; the color, JC30, is called Paprika Haze, reddish highlights over medium to light brown and nicely done. I usually go lighter with the auburns, but I'm pleased with my Elsa. This is my first wig from Joan Collins. That woman's got great taste; she rivals Raquel Welch's wigs. And if I want a more stylish look I have the styling cream and conditioner to use to make this wig even more alluring for evening wear. It's not too short or too long. Just right! Very pleased to say the least. The service by Paula Young is always excellent. I just ordered this a couple of days ago and received it today. Wow! And I must comment that Paula Young's service is the only one that notifies you via phone and email that they've shipped your product. Talk about great! Kudos to Paula Young staff!

I would still recommend Elsa but I don't like having to constantly return my product because it is costly. My first Elsa does not look like what's pictured on Joan Collins--it's even prettier. I can at least comb the top to the left or right without it looking unnatural and plus I trimmed the bangs and you do have enough hair to play with which I prefer. I like the extra hair because you can cut it. I'm glad I bought this one though because I can switch back n' forth when I want to. However, my 2nd one is somewhat a disappointment even though there is still hope for it. I just don't like having to spend too much time trying to style it. The color JC30 is almost like a Med. Brown/Cherry color (Paprika Haze) somewhat of an auburn without the orange look about it, which I do not like at all. After several washings that orange gets even more brassy. This wig is well-constructed though and very feminine, but what I should have done was return it to perhaps try another one. I wish, too, that Paula Young had much more color options, for instance, Chocolate Cherry colors that are flattering to many women's complexions. More brown/red combinations, like Joan Collins JC30, Paprika Haze. My daughter does love this wig on me and as well as the color.
